happy with how kaepernick is playing and how big will it be for him playing in this first playoff game as a starter? >> yes, i am happy with colin's play. i'm happy with alex's play. to look at the quarterback play as a whole, it's been very good. and his preparation is going well. he understands the game plan, and that's all i can ask. >> reporter: you run the football, the third most of any team in the nfl. frank gore hasn't gone over 100 in a while. i don't think he has since kap became the starter. is it his goal to go over 100 or part of the plan that doesn't have to happen? >> it doesn't have to happen. the main thing is we score more points. terrific games, a couple of his best games he was in the 80s. but frank is a true football player and he'll make the most of every catch in this it game. >> let's bring in jim kozemore. he joins us from our newsroom. we have our spot on the couch ready to go for tomorrow night. >> that's what i like to hear, gang. i might be joining you. you just never know. i may show up at your houses. the bay area is abuzz. we're less than 24 hours away f
